We are thrilled to bring our services to the western suburbs!
We are a healthcare practice that strives to integrate the best of conventional and complementary medicine in a caring and healing environment. We believe that both health and disease are functions of physical, emotional, nutritional, and spiritual influences. Many health issues are rooted in a patient’s personal biography – the story of your life – and are most effectively treated by addressing root causes rather than symptoms alone.

This is not “first,” like “first, second,” but an acronym (not mentioned on the card) for quite a mouthful: Fisetin to Reduce Senescence and Mobility Impairment in Peripheral Artery Disease. “Fisetin?”, I […]

For a while the original Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (also called Myalgic Encephalomyelitis) was attributed solely to EBV…

Just last week, Nature Communications published the results of yearlong interviews of almost […]

Very little is discussed about symptoms, diagnosis, and correct treatment. Most students never even see a parasite under a microscope. Physicians in the U.S. seem to think parasites […]
